Don't care what the underlying numbers say - he's nowhere near the player he was 2-3 years ago. I know there's a tacit acceptance that he's not as quick as he once was, but 'd go a step further and say he's actually pretty slow now - I can't remember seeing him beat a man for pace in about 18 months, he just cannot create the same separation from defenders as he used to and it massively impacts his effectiveness. Doesn't help that he can find himself in these 2 months spells where his first touch absolutely disappears.
He's still a great finisher (normally) and he's adjusted his game well to become more of a playmaker, but he's not really excelling as a winger/wide-forward in the way we're trying to use him anymore but it feels like we're just burying our heads in the sand and pretending it's not happening.
